Well, now we are getting ominous rumours about the twinkle toed Arsenal star Santi Cazorla being targeted by Atletico Madrid. While the player would be well within the financial reach of Atletico, Arsenal must seriously look into holding the player in North London, especially after two seasons of wonderful performances and now, also winning the FA Cup. Here are three reasons why the move is detrimental to Arsenal.
1. Cazorla has been the most consistent attacking midfielder for the Gunners
He breathes for the Gunners, as we can easily see that he is willing to work for the team and play in any attacking position and has delivered the goods. After playing in the centre in his first season, where he dazzled immensely, he willingly agreed to play wide with Ozil occupying the number 10 role. Santi Cazorla has still accumulated a tally of 4 goals and 8 assists while making 31 appearances in the league, which speaks volumes on the adjusting capacity and consistency of the Spaniard.
